CIRCLES, NAKAS AND CHOWKS

A ROAD goes through many things . Each city has its own roads . There are many roads in my city Ratnagiri also . We would visit one by one road and its along sides . Each road has its own beauty , own class and own culture ! Every road is independent and still the roads have some common features ! Few are different by history , appearance and class . Yes , the roads do have class of their own ! Few roads had been built by the British ! You can still see the signs of British Vision in this city .

Let us start from a CIRCLE ! Laxmi chowk circle is one of the circles in Ratnagiri . It is always busy  . Here are some views : 

Mirya Road Rikshaw Stop

This is the view from Laxmi Chowk Circle to Partawane road . Partawane is a part of Ratnagiri city . This road goes ahead to Ganpatipule via Aare Ware beach .

This road goes further to Ganpatipule

Post office and the rikshaw stop

Opposite to the Partawane road , another road goes to Gokhale Naka . Gokhale Naka is one of the crowded place of market . There are many shops of different categories and it is the starting point of vegetables and fruits sellers. Here onwards the market goes on expanding . 

Rush of people at Gokhale Naka

       On the Gokhale Naka Road we see 03 more things . Here is Head Post office , a Rikshaw stop just in front of it and small but beautiful Sai Baba temple . Here are the photos :

                      As we move along , we meet more and more roads , circles , lovely buildings , lovely hoardings and boards of shops , beautiful shops and shopping people . We are going to see that one by one in this blog . Do visit often and see the running Ratnagiri . It is really a lovely city to watch during the day and even in the evening . It is a calm city and closes early almost at nine in the night . 

                     Here are few photos of another road which goes down to the area named Peth killa . Killa means a fort . This road comes down from the  Ratnagiri State Transport Depot via famous Aathawada Bazar (weekly market or Saturday Market ) .

As we travel upwards from the S.T. Stand Ratnagiri, we come across another major circle. The Maruti Mandir Ratnagiri Circle. From here three main roads start. one goes to Udyamnagar, the road at the center goes to Hatkhamba and the road at other side goes to Nachane . Here is a photo of this circle :
